TIP: A Simple Photo Workflow for Mac Users

If your photos are stored in Apple Photos, you may wonder where the actual files are and how to use them elsewhere. The good news is that moving a photo from Photos to your Desktop or Facebook takes only a few steps.

Your photo lives inside the Photos Library on your Mac. You do not need to search through that library or move the original. Instead, export a separate copy that you can upload, share, or organize.

Export a photo to your Desktop

1. Open the photo in Apple Photos.

2. Select File at the top of the screen.

3. Choose Export, then Export 1 Photo.

4. Select JPEG, Maximum Quality, sRGB, and Full Size.

5. Click Export and choose Desktop as the destination.

Your original remains safely in Photos, while a separate JPEG copy appears on your Desktop.

Add the photo to Facebook

Open Facebook and begin your post. Select Photo/Video, choose Desktop, and click the exported JPEG.

That is the entire process.

Where Lightroom fits

Not every photo needs to go through Lightroom.

Apple Photos can hold your everyday images and handle quick sharing. Lightroom can be reserved for your best photographs, the images you want to edit carefully, include in your portfolio, print, or publish as part of your visual work.

A simple system might look like this:

* Apple Photos for your everyday photo library
* Lightroom for your best work
* Desktop for photos currently being uploaded or shared
* A clearly named folder for finished images you want to keep outside Photos

This keeps Lightroom from becoming overcrowded and makes it easier to find the photographs that truly represent your work.

The photograph shown here, “Rome from Above,” was exported from Apple Photos directly to the Desktop and was immediately ready to publish. No complicated file search was required.

You can do this. Finish the image first, export it second, and publish it in one clean step.
